The liquor business continues to
receive hard body blows and they
are given from all directions. The
southern states keep on passing pro
hibition laws or in strengthening
' those already in existence. In oth
er states county and other local op
tion laws are also making themselves
I felt. The result of it all is a di
minished consumption of liquor as
the decreased internal revenue re
turns clearly show.

’ The money cost of the destruction
of property through carelessness or
’ wastefulness in this country amounts
to many hundreds of millions of dol
lars every year. But great as that
• is the money value of the loss of
I health, limb and life for which this
carelessness and wastefulness are re
sponsible is far greater. Our factories
mines and railrods take yearly toll
of life and limb that is appalling.
That the railroads alone last year
paid over fifty-six millions of dollars
for personal injuries and damages
will give one a faint idea at least of
the havoc made.
Some people seem to think that
taking a hint is a very clever accom
plishment.
